Happy Birthday Pearl!

Happy Birthday Pearl!    I can't believe it's been one year since we brought her home.    It was her 1st birthday, one year ago we walked into the Civil Affair Center and spotted this little girl in yellow jacket on the couch.     It's been such a joy and blessing to watch her slowly put her trust in us, transformed and blossomed.   Words cannot express enough how much we love her.....     I love you, my precious Pearl.

(Sorry for the poor quality video - I think it's time to let this dinosaur camcorder retire..don't you think?)

One year ago, on Gotcha Day in 2010

One year later, on Pearl's 2nd Birthday
